-# Converting Between JavaScript `Promise`s and Rust `Future`s
+# Working with a JS `Promise` and a Rust `Future`
+
+Many APIs on the web work with a `Promise`, such as an `async` function in JS.
+Naturally you'll probably want to interoperate with them from Rust! To do that
+you can use the `wasm-bindgen-futures` crate as well as Rust `async`
+functions.
+
+The first thing you might encounter is the need for working with a `Promise`.
+For this you'll want to use [`js_sys::Promise`]. Once you've got one of those
+values you can convert that value to `wasm_bindgen_futures::JsFuture`. This type
+implements the `std::future::Future` trait which allows naturally using it in an
+`async` function. For example:
+
+[`js_sys::Promise`]: https://docs.rs/js-sys/*/js_sys/struct.Promise.html
+
+```rust
+async fn get_from_js() -> Result<JsValue, JsValue> {
+    let promise = js_sys::Promise::resolved(&42.into());
+    let result = wasm_bindgen_futures::JsFuture::from(promise).await?;
+    Ok(result)
+}
+```
+
+Here we can see how converting a `Promise` to Rust creates a `impl Future<Output
+= Result<JsValue, JsValue>>`. This corresponds to `then` and `catch` in JS where
+a successful promise becomes `Ok` and an erroneous promise becomes `Err`.
+
+Next up you'll probably want to export a Rust function to JS that returns a
+promise. To do this you can use an `async` function and `#[wasm_bindgen]`:
+
+```rust
+#[wasm_bindgen]
+pub async fn foo() {
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+When invoked from JS the `foo` function here will return a `Promise`, so you can
+import this as:
+
+```js
+import { foo } from "my-module";
+
+async function shim() {
+    const result = await foo();
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+## Return values of `async fn`
+
+When using an `async fn` in Rust and exporting it to JS there's some
+restrictions on the return type. The return value of an exported Rust function
+will eventually become `Result<JsValue, JsValue>` where `Ok` turns into a
+successfully resolved promise and `Err` is equivalent to throwing an exception.
+
+The following types are supported as return types from an `async fn`:
+
+* `()` - turns into a successful `undefined` in JS
+* `T: Into<JsValue>` - turns into a successful JS value
+* `Result<(), E: Into<JsValue>>` - if `Ok(())` turns into a successful
+  `undefined` and otherwise turns into a failed promise with `E` converted to a
+  JS value
+* `Result<T: Into<JsValue>, E: Into<JsValue>>` - like the previous case except
+  both data payloads are converted into a `JsValue`.
+
+Note that many types implement being converted into a `JsValue`, such as all
+imported types via `#[wasm_bindgen]` (aka those in `js-sys` or `web-sys`),
+primitives like `u32`, and all exported `#[wasm_bindgen]` types. In general,
+you should be able to write code without having too many explicit conversions,
+and the macro should take care of the rest!
+
+## Using `wasm-bindgen-futures`
 
 The `wasm-bindgen-futures` crate bridges the gap between JavaScript `Promise`s
 and Rust `Future`s. Its `JsFuture` type provides conversion from a JavaScript
